21-13, 14-21, 16-21 is the scoreline with which Sat-Chi will have to leave the Paris Olympics 2024.

Things were even at the start with the Indians leading by one point at the mid-game break in Game 1. The Indian pair ran away with things in the second half and won the first game comfortably. The second game saw a similar pattern but just that the roles had been reversed. The Malaysians had the 1-point lead at the interval this time and they made light work of the Indian pair in the second half. The drift was an important factor in both the games and the pair who was playing with the drift seemed to have the advantage. In the third and final game, it was imperative for Sat-Chi to take the early lead since they had the faster side first.

What transpired after that was some sheer class from the Malaysians and the Indians losing the plot with unforced errors flowing and the cracks started to widen. Chirag seemed nervy and committed a lot of errors conceding soft points and while Satwik was flawless for most of the game, he too seemed to feel the heat towards the end.
